These limits are stored in the mount’s internal memory and applied each time the mount
is turned on.
The software slew limits must be reconfigured when the
command (page
131) is issued. You may wish to write down the hour angle of the software slew limit so
that it can be reset if necessary.
Set To This Value
Click this button to use the mount’s current position to define the software slew limit.
Set To Current Position
Click this button to use the mount’s current mechanical position to define the slewing and tracking limit.
If the payload might collide with the side of the pier, for example, first slew the mount to the “post
collision” position, then click the button. To gain confidence that the slew limit is actually working, use
the hand controller to try to slew the mount (at the slowest slew rate) past the limit. A properly defined
software limit will automatically stop the slew, even when the mount is commanded from the hand
controller.
Mount At Slew Limit Graphic
The mount graphic on the bottom of the
Software Slew Limits
pane is intended to convey an
example
of
the orientation of the Paramount mount at the east and west meridian slew limits. This graphic is
not
intended to be “model specific” (in other words, the graphic that represents the mount will be the same
for any Paramount model mount selected in the
TheSkyX Professional Edition’s
Telescope Setup
window).
Hand Controller Settings
The four slew rates on the Hand Controller slew rate switch can be configured from the
Hand Controller
settings on the
Utilities
tab.
